@The Eternal Covenant Between Man and Nature You think kneeling was for etiquette? Actually, it was originally just to prevent exposure. For three thousand years, the Chinese wore robes with nothing underneath. It wasn't because they didn't care about privacy, but because before cotton became widespread, there simply wasn't a soft and inexpensive material suitable for wearing next to the skin. Linen was too rough, silk was too expensive and not durable, so the ancients could only rely on loose robes for covering themselves, combined with a specific sitting posture to solve the problem. This kneeling has lasted for three thousand years. This episode covers: the true form of ancient undergarments, how fabric costs determined clothing structure, the practical origins of kneeling etiquette, the material dilemmas before the widespread use of cotton, and different solutions Westerners used to face the same problem.
